The role of bridging nodes in behavioral network models of complex engineered systems

open access: yesDesign Science, 2018
Recent advances in early stage failure analysis approaches have introduced behavioral network analysis (BNA), which applies a network-based model of a complex engineered system to detect the system-level effect of ‘local’ failures of design variables and

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Hardware-in-the-loop performance analysis of a railway traction system under sensor faults

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
Fault mode and effects analysis (FMEA) has been used during decades for analysing the effects of faults in different applications. Initially, FMEA based on risk priority numbers provided information about the effects in the system, but during the last ...

A New Function-Topology-Based Method for Assessing Passive Safety of Mechatronics Systems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Various safety assessment models for predicting the future state of systems based on online monitoring data have been proposed. However, the complexity and interdependencies of mechatronics systems make it improbable to predict and prevent all possible ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Approximate Bayesian Computation for a Dual-Failure-Modes Models and Its Application to Failure Times Data

open access: yesIEEE Access
In this study, comprehensive approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) technique is explored, and develop for an innovative model. We practically demonstrate approximate Bayesian computation (ABC)-Gibbs scheme using Kolmogorov-Smirnov as distance function ...

Research on the influences of location selection and permeability of wind power generation on cascading failure

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2018
The main cause for cascading failure is large-scale overload caused by localised abnormal flows. With the increase of wind power penetration, the complexity of flow distribution is strengthened.

Risk Assessment of a Wind Turbine: A New FMECA-Based Tool With RPN Threshold Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
A wind turbine is a complex system used to convert the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy. During the turbine design phase, a risk assessment is mandatory to reduce the machine downtime and the Operation & Maintenance cost and to ...
